    301st are okay, IIRC, but the 300 and 301 were no bueno for me.

    Corking the 300 and 301 did nothing to improve the shave, for me.

    The 301st is still okay, and I have a few tucks stashed away, just in case the shavepocolypse comes our way.

    I go against the grain here (pun intended). I hate Feathers because they hate me.

    I am a mild razor fan - Derby is my favorite.

    While you are sending out samples, I am torn between a
    gT mustang, and a Camaro any color will do...
    I will be waiting at my front door. I owe you one.

    I was using feather, but I get a lot of weepers when using them in my Futur. When I bought the Futur the guy sent me a pack of Astra SP's. I get no weepers and just as close a shave. I'm going to gift my remaining feathers to a friend of mine who loves them.

    I use Feathers in my milder razors. They work great in my vintage Apollo and the Timeless Bronze. I can put them in more aggressive razor but the chances of weepers increases.

    Feathers are great in a mild razor. But I never get more than 3 shaves from one.

    YMMV. As with all blades, you have to try them yourself.
